In 2018, Gumbo Kings introduced the world to their unique sound with their first EP, *Gumbo Kings*, produced by Paul Willemsen. In February 2025, Gumbo Kings will release their debut album *Hotel Belvédère*. With this album, Gumbo Kings takes you to a fictional place that may or may not have existed somewhere in Florida. While the band previously drew inspiration primarily from Soul and Rhythm & Blues, their debut album showcases a distinct sound of their own. We’re no longer in Memphis or New Orleans with the familiar tones of Blues and Soul, but in 1980s Miami.
GUMBO KINGS
Friday 21 February 2025
The band Gumbo Kings combines the sound of blues harmonica with 80s disco synths. This romantic band with a sharp edge was the most booked act of the Popronde in 2019. Now they are coming to PAARD to share their groovy delta blues, soul, and rhythm. Expect a live performance that feels like a steamy nightclub, where danger is never far away. On stage, there are no boundaries for this group of sophisticated musicians.
